fullsac thoughts
Hi All,
I am thinking of fitting Fullsacs true dual kit and wondered if anyone could answer a couple of questions please;
1. Does the power stay in the same place ? - higher or lower in the rev range ?
2. I have a V&H fuelpak - will this need the modes changing ?
(I have standard pipes with V&H ovals / SE filter also.)
I think fromreading all the threads here that most people like the Fullsac TD kit ?
Thanks all.

Been a long while since I have been to this forum. I'm not much of a log on guy anymore, but this is something I know a bit about. I bought the fullsac as a way to get the 2-2 look, but save some cash in doing it. I run straight fishtail pipes, w/out baffles. The kit is easy enough to install. I can't say that from a seat of the pants feel, that there was a darn bit of difference. I have a 05 flhrs, with a carb, so can't help with the tune, but I would think a change would be needed. I felt more heat coming off the left side than before. Personally, and because I hadn't seen it done on a bagger, I did away with my heat shields, and wrapped the pipes with pipe wrap. Last Sturgis it sure made it more comfortable going down the main drag. The wrap also lessened the loudness of having straight pipes, but all the backfire, and sputtering was gone. Could have been from the fullsac, the wrap, or the carb kit I installed...although I still had the backfire with the carb kit before I did the fullsac. BUT, for the price, I can say I am satisfied...completely, actually. If there is a more direct question I can answer, please feel free to ask. Hope my short novel helped, to some degree...
I installed the Fullsac true duals kit a few months ago along with their SE touring muffler 2" baffles. I also installed a set of Xied's at the same time. I luv the sound and the better bark from my OEM SE muffler. As for a seat of the pants feel I noticed a minute difference but I don't really care about that so I have forgotten about it.

Did a Fullsac conversion a few months ago due to a cracked "Y" pipe on my older bike. I've noticed no change in power - the bike runs just the same as it always has and needs no extra tuning. It sounds a little different, though. A better bark without being louder. Now the left side slip-on is the same color as the right. Been real happy with it and going back to the stock system is out of the question.
You might want to look into one of the Stage kits he has put together. I've been to his shop, he even dyno tuned my Night Train, even though he doesn't normally do anything but touring bikes. He's a stand up guy.

I have been running the fullsac conversion and I didnt notice any power difference except the bark from a throttle twist...I love the sound and i will not go back to stock exhaust. I also run a carb and i had to mess with the jetting a little and i added torque cones but over all i didnt do anything else.
From my experiance.No more popping on deccel.Better sound.Power seems the same.Had to change Fuelpak settings to true dual setting but its no big deal.Didnt like the looks at first so i customised my "y" pipe to match like it was original but its still true dual.happy ever since
